RE: put my fox on diet
I plan on being as close to 2500 as I can when I am done lol. But that won't happen because of the added weight of chasis stiffening and full (almost) interior. I can see 2700 probaby. Especially with my feather weight *** lol (125lbs).

Lol yup. 5'4" 125 lbs. 21 years old. Most I have ever weighed is like 135 lol. My older brother isn't much bigger lol.
check us out back in july when I first got my 83 running. Talk about putting your car on a diet just put yourself on one

My car sounds so much better now that I have an exhaust and the carb tuned.

a huge weight saving (if its a hatchback) is putting on a fiberglass hatch with lexan window, and either ditching the stock wing or put an aluminum drag wing on there. the difference is absolutely amazing. id be suprised if mine weighted much more than 20lbs all together. i can easily lift it on and off, but the stock hatch i can barely even lift a few inches off the ground, let alone put it back on lol.

There really isn't much that you can do in the *** that helps you with losing weight and makes the car any better. Truth be told adding wieght (battery relocation) helps more than losing.
